My first book was Europe on Five Wrong Turns a Day(Perigee Books/Penguin, 2012), a travel memoir about my attempt to tour Europe guided only by a 1963 copy of the guidebook Europe on Five Dollars a Day. This blog has its roots in that trip, and if you dig back to the 2009 archives, you'll find my posts from the road.

Keep in touch

Long live the handwritten letter!

I'm on a mission to keep handwritten letters and postcards alive. Write to me! I'll write back (eventually--be warned that I'm kind of slow).
